SSSC responses to consultations

Our written responses to major external consultations are available on this page.

If you would like to find out more about any of these responses, or other consultations that may not be listed here, please contact the Strategic Performance and Engagement Department by emailing: communications@sssc.uk.com.

In the interests of ensuring maximum transparency, we make every effort to secure consent to publish all responses in full, subject only to necessary redactions in the interests of data protection. The SSSC has to comply with the requirements of the Data Protection Act.

In November 2017 the Scottish Government published ‘Empowering Schools: A consultation on the provisions of the Education (Scotland) Bill’. The SSSC’s response is attached. On 1 February 2018 we published an updated version of our response. This version includes some minor amendments and a bibliography.
